Abstract
In September, 1973, the United States Congress passed a law which prohibits discrimination on the basis of mental or physical handicaps in every federally-funded program within the United States. The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Section 504, states: No otherwise qualified handicapped individual in the United States ••• shall, solely by reason of his handicap, be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance (United States statutes at large, 1973, Appendix A). Institutions must comply with this law, or face losing federal funds.
